The only shot of it disassembled is during the end credits. | Illya Kuryakin ([[Armie Hammer]]) uses a modified [[Walther GSP Expert]] at the end of the film.

Firstly, we can see that the compensator has been removed entirely, secondly, that the pistol has some barrel (threaded) even without the extended barrel, and finally that the extended barrel's muzzle end is the same diameter as the pistol's barrel, and that it's rear end is far larger, all implying that it is actually an optional screw-over extension, and that not only can the pistol be used without the extension (like the original) but that it can be suppressed while doing so. Despite this, it would seem that the front sight post has been removed entirely, rendering it virtually unusable without the scope.]] | ||

The Man from U.N.C.L.E. is the 2015 feature film adaptation of the 1964 television series of the same name that was created by Sam Rolfe and starred Robert Vaughn and David McCallum. Like the series, the film is set during the height of the Cold War in the early 1960's and chronicles the meeting and subsequent teaming up of American CIA agent Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) and Russian KGB Agent Illya Kuryakin (Armie Hammer) in order to stop a mysterious international criminal organization, whose goal is to destabilize the fragile balance of power through the proliferation of nuclear weapons and technology.
The following weapons were used in the film The Man from U.N.C.L.E.:

Handguns
Browning Hi-Power
Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) carries a Browning Hi-Power as his personal sidearm. Illya Kuryakin (Armie Hammer) uses one later in the film as well.
Makarov PM
Illya Kuryakin (Armie Hammer) and East German police (Volkspolizei) officers are seen with the Makarov PM as their primary firearm.
SIG P210
One of the muggers (Riccardo Flammini) draws a SIG P210 on Illya.
Walther PPK
Victoria Vinciguerra (Elizabeth Debicki) is seen firing a Walther PPK.
Walther GSP Expert
Illya Kuryakin (Armie Hammer) uses a modified Walther GSP Expert at the end of the film. Equipped with a custom pistol grip, shoulder stock, suppressor, scope, extended magazine and extended barrel, this appears to be an homage to the U.N.C.L.E. Custom Pistol from the series, which was a similarly modified Walther P38. But, as Illya is the only one to use it in the film, and since the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement only came about at the end of the film, this can be more accurately described as a KGB Custom Pistol. Also unlike the original UNCLE pistol, it's never seen used as a pistol, only as a carbine. The only shot of it disassembled is during the end credits.
Submachine Guns
East German border guards and police are armed with PPSh-41s.
Walther MPK
Vinciguerra henchmen are armed with Walther MPKs.
Walther MPL
At least one Vinciguerra henchman is armed with a Walther MPL.
Sterling SMG
Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) as well as members of the Royal Marines are seen using Sterling SMGs.
Rifles/Carbines
M1 Carbine
American troops are armed with M1 Carbines at Checkpoint Charlie.
Kalashnikov-type
East German border guards are armed with a Kalashnikov-type weapon, and other than the fact that they're chambered in 7.62x39mm, it's impossible to determine anything more precise than that.
SIG SG 542
Vinciguerra henchmen are also armed with SIG SG 542s, which would be anachronistic since this rifle was introduced in 1977 and this movie takes place in 1963.
Unidentified sniper rifle
A Royal Marine sniper uses a bolt-action sniper rifle to pick off guards during the final assault. It's not possible to make a positive ID. The same netting that breaks up the sniper's outline also hinders proper identification.
L1A1 SLR
Royal Marines guards are armed with L1A1 SLRs.
Machine guns/Other
Browning M2HB
A Browning M2HB is mounted on an American M41 Walker Bulldog at Checkpoint Charlie.
FN MAG
A Vinciguerra patrol boat has a pair of FN MAG machine guns mounted in a twin turret.
Hispano Mk V 20mm cannon
The Hawker Sea Hawks on board the HMS Ark Royal are presumably armed with four 20mm Hispano Mk V cannons.
